Armenia is receiving positive signals from Turkey and is ready to respond positively, Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinian said Friday.

Pashinian spoke on his evaluations of the agenda items at a government meeting in the capital Yerevan.

Pashinian also touched upon the relations between Turkey and Armenia in his speech and said: “We are getting some clear positive signals from the Turkish public. We will evaluate these signals, (by) responding to positive signals with positive signals.”

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Aug. 25, “We expressed that with the end of the occupation in Nagorno-Karabakh, a new window of opportunity has opened in our region for lasting peace and that we will do what is necessary if Armenia considers it.”

Erdoğan several times proposed the establishment of a six-country regional cooperation platform, saying it would be a win-win initiative for all regional actors in the Caucasus.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
